Default How do you put on a regular ext. coil???????

Hey all, my moms prelude has the stock external coil, unfortunately, when i worked on it today, i just took off the coil wire and the plastic on the coil itself, where the coil wire would plug onto, kinda broke into fragmented pieces(i guess brittle from the engine heat). i priced a new oem coil and its like almost $100, my question is, can i put in a regular msd external blaster coil? i looked at the plug on the oem coil and theirs 3 wires and the msd coil just has the + and - on the coil, can anyone help me to get thisd to work, Thanks......

do NOT use the MSD blaster Coils unless your using a MSD ignition box. Trust me, you'll burn out the Ignitor in the distributor. Buy a New HONDA Coil. or FAIL

I just removed all my msd stuff the other day. the sci box failed and I was gonna sell the coil to someone on the 3rd gen forum. I guess I wont do that cause I dont want anyone to burn the ignitor out just so i can make 20.00

This doesn't work like FB.... If you have a question start a thread. This one is 10 years old, and the user that you quoted hasn't been on the site in the last 3 years.
